[quote]Having studied much feminist theology in my masters’ degrees, I wrote a thesis on liberation and freedom and non-equality in feminist theology and existential counseling,” Calkins told the delegates.

“And I am still waiting for the Episcopal Church to come to the place where all people feel that they can speak God’s name," Calkins continued. "Many, many women that I have spoken with over my past almost 20 years in ordained ministry have felt that they could not be a part of any church because of the male image of God that is systemic and that is sustained throughout our liturgies. Many of us are waiting and need to hear God in our language, in our words and in our pronouns."[/quote]

I certainly think a human conception of God is a difficult subject, but if the national Episcopal Church takes a similar stance, I would expect attendance to drop.[/quote]
